A little bit expensive, that's why I have only ordered Two... :shock:

This looks a great BIN, a lime green SF #53 Ford Zodiac, looks in great condition with a minor box rub to the roof, however half the price it would normally sell for, looks a bit of a bargain.

Hi Alex,

I came across this one independently and snapped it up at that price.

Unfortunately, the seller posted it in a standard envelope and the nice, last issue 'G' box without 'TM' marks was crushed. :(

The model itself is a mid-way shade between my dark and lighter models, so definitely a keeper.

Cheers
John

Nice one John. Shame about the box being crushed.

For those of you who are into the subtle grill trim differences, here's a BIN posting for a 68A radio truck with silver trim covering the full grill/radiator. I've already got one. It is pretty much a lovely MIB example. The offering expires Sunday April 30th. $89.95US. Being sold by the Diecast Toy Exchange guys who run the Hershey Toy Show in the fall.

Zero feedback + location China + photo lifted from the auction which closed last week = scam. (I wonder how it works?)
